Yeah, I hate to too. The only place they're gonna bite me on it is with LOTR. I've gotten the big boxed sets of the first two extended editions and will get the third.
Now, in the commentary on TTT, Pete Jackson kicks around the idea of, when all is said and done, releasing a chronological cut - That I would be into. He also talks about a ton of things that got left on the floor when they were done editing. If they do a criterion edition Brazil type job on the Trilogy, it will be mine and hang the cost. If they release the trilogy with extra-special super extended cuts, then I am all over that too (more Middle Earth is better).
But LOTR is definitely a special case. I bought a lot of regular editions early, and I won't replace them with specials until they wear out. Even for stuff like Monty Python, which is within a whisker of as important to me as LOTR.
